Description
Summary:This document contains the new and verified task lists for 10 occupations: shipping and receiving clerk; general office clerk; billing, cost, and rate clerk; order clerk; accounting clerk; typist/word processor; drafter; cook; automobile mechanic; and carpenter. The DACUM (Developing a Curriculum) process task analysis and survey verification and the sample questionnaire are included for the first four occupations. The four DACUM task lists were developed using the DACUM approach. Panels of expert workers within an occupational area were asked to identify job competencies such as knowledges, skills, and abilities required to perform the job successfully as a basis for competency-based curriculum development. Approximately one week after the panel was conducted, each panelist was mailed a task analysis and survey verification form containing a list of task statements and job competencies identified during the task development process. Panelists ranked the skills in order of importance and added other skills as needed. The National Alliance of Business worked with the Chicago Public Schools to conduct the local verification of the other six occupations. (KC)
